February says the shortest am I,
March on! says April to May and June,
Julius and Augustus a triumphant tune,
September, October, once seven and eight,
Chronologically wrong now but year is straight,
Caesar and Gregory pondered it still,
November, December, the year to fill,
Yet again Janus, and two-faced is he,
Another year gone by - how can it be?
R. Melnick, from 1997, revisited 12-2020
